we love

we love people who we find interesting
and then we try to change them into our images
all too soon we realized we are bored with our toys
because that is what people become when you treat them like that
—
we have highly evolved and sophisticated defense mechanisms
to keep the world from telling us that in our heart we are a gullible child
and we fall in love with polite mysterious strangers still
like a teenager that we once were and will never be again
